Speaking of Grants order to Logan to
go to Nashville and supersede Thomas,
! the Columbus dispatch says:
Grant showed more vacillation in that Nashville
business than in any other thing in his whole his
tory
That is one instance where the West
Point conceit got the better of a great
mans judgment Grant, at City Point,
pictured in his own mind just what
| Thomas ought to be able to do at Nash
vile, and ordered it done, just as Shesman
argued that according to West Point
rules, Hood was retreating, on the 22d of
July, 1864, when, according to Hoods own
rules, he was advancing upon Sherman's
forces. And it took the most desperate
and heroic fighting to prevent disastrous
results. Sherman, with the great body of
his magnificent Army, was Marching
Through Georgia" with none to molest,
or make him afraid, while Thomas was
sent back, to do the best he could, with
such a force as he might be able to col
lect, against the heroic Army of Hoods
veterans, the Army which had given
Sherman's entire command some serious
business during that Spring and Sum
mer. Thomas, though a West Pointer,
was practical, sensible officer, who took
things as he found them-not, like Sher-
man at Shiloh-as West Point laid out
for them. AS a result he was never
whipped. When Thomas stood, the Con-
federates knew the only thing to do was
to stop. When Thomas advanced, they
knew it was time to get out. Had Logan,
or any other volunteer officer, been in
battle all arranged, and West Point Off
Ger been given an opportunity TO snatch
the laurels from his brow and wear them,
there would not have been any such he
roic conduct of Logan exhibited: He
could have gone to Nashville, placed him
self at the head of the Army Thomas had
organized, and thrashed Hood, from the
jump. But Thomas knew more about
the situation than any of them, and the
gallant Logan permitted him to destroy
Hoods Army, without interference from
his friends. An ounce of the common
sense of Pap Thomas, at that icy, miser-
able time, was worth all the windy theor-

fought with the indominitable Thomas
knew it. The order superseding Thomas
was the gravest mistake Grant made, and
it presented before the country the true
character of two of the grandest soldiers
in the worlds history-Thomas, signify
ing his willingness to submit without a
murmur to any orders from his superior
officer-Logan, hanging back until his
friend could gain the victory of his plan
ming. Grant saw his mistake afterward,
and tried to atone, for it with words of
praise. Thomas character was in many
respects like Logan's. Thomas was al
ways careful of his men, in that he would
not needlessly sacrifice them. But when
desperate fighting was to be done, Thom-
as was splendid man to have around.
These two represented the highest types
of the two grades of oficers-Regulars
and Volunteers, and no Nation on earth
ever had better fighters.
